DeRozan scored 25 points as the Raptors lost for the first time in six games and failed to break the franchise record for consecutive home victories.

Dragic, who finished the game with 24 points, 12 rebounds, and four assists, did not back down from DeRozan as the two got into a scuffle as the horn sounded. At 28-10, these Raptors are trying to prove that they can take the next step. They get 20 offensive rebounds. Instead, Miami players like Wayne Ellington and Goran Dragic were stealing the spotlight with their shooting, and the Heat were dominating the boards, causing the Raps to slip into a 51-41 hole by half time.

The Raptors' average margin of victory in their last five games has been 5.6, down from 8.1 for the season. DeRozan leads in points and in steals (1.2) per game while Valanciunas tops in rebounds (7.8).

Overall, the Raptors' offence wasn't good, making only one three-point shot and shooting under 37% from the field.

Ibaka was hardly a player they could afford to lose - he'd been escorted off the floor after providing 11 points, five rebounds and two blocked shots.
